    I’m used to zocalo’s being an adults only vibe, where my friends and I go to drink margs, listen to music and have a good time. But this time there were so many children it looked like a daycare. Which is not zocalo’s fault but really disappointing to see. Plus the music was incredibly loud, particularly where we were seated a speaker was directed right behind our heads. Interestingly they had a decibel meter in a corner behind us and behind the speaker which consistently read at 112 decibels (louder than a chain saw) so imagine what it sounded like in front of the speaker.

    Music does not need to be that loud all the time. Its hard to hear your dinner mates talk.

    Food was great! Drinks were very tasty. The music is a little too loud. I felt like me and my friend had to yell to hear each other.

    A lively place. I arrived for my 6:45pm, 12April2025, bar seat reservation on time. Upon arrival I was informed that there were no seats available at the bar. I advised the host that I had a reservation, to which he responded, “I don’t know why they allow bar seat reservations because the bar is always full.” I was asked to wait for an available seat. About 15 minutes later I advised the host that there was a space but no bar seat and asked for a chair. He obtained a chair and I was seated at the bar for dinner. I would have appreciated if he had been a bit more proactive as he left it up to me to find a seat, without regard for my confirmed reservation. Justin, the bar tender made up for the SNAFU with the reservation/host/seating. He immediately greeted me, offered a hand-mixed margarita and a dinner menu. Thank you Justin. I had the chicken with mole sauce and plantains. It was delicious. The atmosphere was very active and loud. However, everyone seemed to be having a great time and there was a line to get in. I would recommend having a reservation. That said, the experience was good (except the seating issue) and I would recommend Zocalo and will return.

    My daughter and I had SO much fun at Zocalo! The food was really great and flavorful and the presentation of the drinks (even the mocktails) was so pretty. Everyone was so friendly and we enjoyed the music and happiness of all there!
